THE BURNED MILL.
The Losses Of Ellis & Go. Adjusted
by The Insurance Companies.
]. w. FURNISH,
Sec'y.

The various insurance companies
represented in the losses of the
burned mill of +. L. Ellis & Co. have
settled the same, and their prompt
ness is very commendable. There
was $35, 500 on the mill and stock
and all of it was paid excepting ST.
$50, which was deducted from the
insurance on certain articles not de-
stroyed. The following is COM
plete list of the losses sustained by
the various companies:
Hartford $500; Washington 81
600; Lancashire $1,000; Providence
Washington $1,000; Anglo Nevada
1854; National $2,333; Guardian
$l,750; Orient 1888. These on stock
and mill building aggregating $4,000
were settled at $4,000. Orient$1 500
on iron clad building, settled at 81, 400
Home of N. Y, $500; ms. Co.,
North America $500, Liverpool L.
& G., $500; Western $1,000; Spring
field $1,000; Northwestern National
$1,000; Council Bluffs $1,000; Home
of Tenn, $1,000; Oakland Home
$1,000 Merchants $500. These on
mill building, machinery, engine and
boiler amounting to $4,000 were adj
justed at 81, 400.
UNDECIDED AS TO REBUILDING.
Mr.. f. L. Ellis, the head of the firm
burned out, was seen by KENTUoK-
IAN man yesterday and stated that he
was as yet undecided az to what his
future plans would be. He says he
is investigating to find out how much
water there is in his well and that
the result of his Investigations may
influence his plans to some extent
1t is very likely that lake or stream
of great magnitude will be found al
depth of 40 feet, as there is hollow
of some 81 feet at the bottom of the
we'll and the supply of water is mex
haustible. Eyeless fish are frequently
pumped up, as is also the case at the
well OF the Metcalfe Manufacturing
Co., a few squares away. Every in.
dication points to the presence of q
large quantity of water under the
city, which If found in a California
city would be looked upon as direct
blessing from Heaven.

ovRaIN DOTS.
DAWSON, KY, oor. 10, 81.

/
MIR. EbiToR:
The couplet that the poet gave ns
on the issue OF life, Unto each life
some rain must fall, some days be
dark aud dreary" is now being veri-
fed in the history of our little city on
the hill.
Death has taken away from our
midst Mr.. Dwight Dawson, the gen.
tleman for whom Dawson was
named. Ho was in the prime of life,
and he was taken away without
warning. Oh, how many lessons we
have on the certainty of unbid-
den visits from this dark messenger,
Death. The wind bloweth where it
listeth we hear the sound thereof but
we can't tell whence it came or
whittier it goeth.
Not so with death, oftentimes we
are hurled into another world ere We
know we have said Vale 10 Mother
Earth.
And isn't it natural that we should
think that sudden death would hap
pen to any other than ourselvesH
The falling of thu "dry and with
cred leaves" betokens that natures
garb is lettering with age and wea-
ry summers sun and that it too is
shaking off its mortal coil"
Oh, how terrifcally grand it is to
walk into the silent forests on the
banks of this winding Trade Water
and listen TO the plaintive signs of
the forest spirit, the rustlings of my
riads of leaves falling, falling, falling
from their high abode to the earth,
who gave them, and realize the ON
nipresence of God over all things
forever most blessed.
l forgot to mention in my last that
Dawson has jew store, watCrworks
and is just completing two large
brick business houses.
We have a very good and chariia-
BILE lot of citizens here. l know of
several instances of charity that de-
serve notice. So you passers-by
must know that on these red hill
sides there are hearts that are as
truly patriotic and chivalric as the
world produces. Several have come
here in quest of health and have died
without a place TO lay their heads
and in each instance they have been
buried. j. Ii. G.

The experience of the present sea-
son should show Hopkinsville con-
cluSively how wholly at the mercy Of
chance she is in the matter of water
facilities. With cisterns nearly all
dry aud no waterworks in the city
our people are having great difficulty
in getting water for family uses.
And yet there is within few feet of
the surface an exhaustible supply OF
water under the city that only needs
10 be utilized. 1t is this lack of en-
terprise and progress on the part of
the city of Hopkinsville that is driv-
ing her best young men out of the
city every year. What we want
above all things is class of wealthy
men who will put their money into
public improvements that will bene-
ct not only themselves buttheir town,
There is wealth enough In Hopkins
vile to build waterworks, street rail-
ways, a market house, a fine hotel
and all of dozen other needed i'm
provements, but it is in the hands OF
these who invest in nothing but first
mortgages on real estate.
